We encourage all students to take an active role in school life through our House system We believe that Shaftesbury and Sturminster Sixth Form is the ideal size; large enough to offer a wide range of courses, small enough that you feel part of a community where you are known and supported We promote the highest expectations of our students, and encourage each individual to be the best they can be We are proud of setting high standards for our students Many of these students travel to us from all over the world, enriching our learning environment through their diverse cultures, faiths and traditions
